Kenneth and Elliot,

Should the documents be merged into  
https://crosswalk-project.org/#documentation/? I can’t find guidelines to 
contribute document in https://crosswalk-project.org/#contribute/OverviewHow? 
How can I do that?

Thanks
Zhang Xu

Subject: Re: [Crosswalk-dev] Announcement on API Access Control Feature

Is anyone looking into integrating the documentation in the website itself?

Hi all,

We are very pleased to announce that security feature: API access control is 
enabled in crosswalk. This feature is based on the runtime and extension 
process mode provided by crosswalk. API access control is one of fundamental 
security features in crosswalk.

The introduction of API access control feature is as below:
A subset of the JavaScript APIs supported in Crosswalk are considered 
restricted. If these restricted APIs are not used correctly, running unsafe 
application can harm user privacy and system stability. Security feature “API 
access control” provides fine grained access control on Web APIs. Application’s 
invocation of sensitive API SHOULD be granted or denied based on the 
permissions that the application has.

We provide two user guide documents to help extension developers and web 
application developers. If you have any questions on the usage, please send 
email to us bai.m...@intel.com<mailto:bai.m...@intel.com> and 
xu.u.zh...@intel.com<mailto:xu.u.zh...@intel.com>.
For extension developers, please follow 
https://docs.google.com/document/d/19IOppzhW1e5-jsuq_yVPMK5MANSYNh74jQc01DS9LZc/edit#<https://docs.google.com/document/d/19IOppzhW1e5-jsuq_yVPMK5MANSYNh74jQc01DS9LZc/edit>
 to enforce API access control on your implementation.
For web application developers who want the web application can use crosswalk 
device features, please follow 
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1dD5sMtsHM5p6Wu0Omd1DjQXmS8dQLaHEG4qK5o6MRF8/edit#<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1dD5sMtsHM5p6Wu0Omd1DjQXmS8dQLaHEG4qK5o6MRF8/edit>
 to declare the permissions in your application manifest.

By the way, there is one issue 
https://crosswalk-project.org/jira/browse/XWALK-1119 which blocks us to verify 
this feature on Tizen IVI. If there is any issue, please contact us and we will 
update the code as soon as possible.

Thanks
Zhang Xu
